SHED FOR AERIAL VESSELS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed October 7, 1909. Serial No. 521,571.
and has for its object to enable such vesselsto be readily housed or despatched, whichever the direction of their travel may be. For this purpose I have combined a tumtable with a] lurality of individual sheds disposed radially, as will be full described tion being pointed out particularly in the appended claims.
ingrdrawings, in which i re 1 is a vertical section on line 1-'-1 ofF1g.",2; Fig. 2 is a plan view of a balloon shed embodying my invention.
A plurality of stationary individual sheds A- of any suitable construct-ion are so arranged as to converge toward a central Reference is to be had to the accompany-- space, that is to say, the sheds A radiate fro a common center. However they termina'te at a distance from the center, so as to leave at their inner ends, a space the diameter of which exceeds the-length of the largest balloon to be accommodated. The sheds are provided at their inner and at their outer ends with openings adapted to be closed by suitable doors as indicated at B,
' and are of proper dimensions to receive and protect balloons, such as the balloon C. Be-
tween the inner ends of the stationary sheds A'is arranged a turntable D mounted to revolve horizontally and provided with suit able means for connecting ittemporarily with a balloon. As shown in the drawlngs my invention comprises a movable shed E carried by-"the turntable D so as to turn therewith and of substantially the same construction as the stationary sheds A, and this movable shed may also have doors F at its ends. The turntable D may be mounted on circular tracks Gr.
Upon the approach of an airship desiring to enter'the buildin the movable shed E will be brought to ace in the direction of the prevailing wind, and the balloon will be received therein and then transferred to one of the'stationary sheds A by a proper operation of the turntable, which enables the movable shed to bealined with any one of the stationary sheds. The doors B, F will be opened and closed at the proper times to admit and securely house the alrships Of course, if the wind should happen to blow in the direction in which one of the emptystationary sheds faces, it will not be necessary to receive the balloon in the movable shed E, but it may be run directly into such stationary shed. The departure of a balloon will take place in a similar way. That is to say, the balloon will be brought out from its stationary shed A either directly .(if the wind blows in the longitudinal axis of said shed), or after first transferring it to the movable shed E and turning the latter until it is in line with the direction of the wind. I
Various modifications may be made without departing from the nature of my invention as defined in the claims.
I claim as my invention- I 1. The combination of converging stationary'sheds for aerial vessels, a-turntable arranged adjacent to said sheds, and a shed carried by said turntable to turn therewith and adapted for alinement with any one of the stationary sheds.
2. The combination of a turntable, a balloon shed carried thereby to turn therewith, and a plurality of stationary sheds radiating from the center of the turntable and extending outward from the periphery of 'said turntable, said stationary sheds being alinement with the movable In testimony whereof I have hereunto: presence of two,
aflixed my signature in the subscribing witnesses.
